S&C! it's SO GOOD. and very bluntly violent.



you should listen to 'cold and blue and lifeless' by them. i wish they still played it live regularly, 'tis badass.

Album Rating: 3.5

Cold and Blue and Lifeless is so cool. Why they didn't include that on S&C is beyond me.

this album is their best by far.

Not as good as their S/T (which is their best imo) but still pretty solid, good slice of pop-punk to warm the cold March nights (in a bitter, sarcastic, sneering sort of way.)

Album Rating: 4.0

Self titled is by far the best. Montauk is probably the best song they've ever released.

Wonderfully written review Davey. =)

Album Rating: 3.5

Nah mixtape, if you want catchy & best, you can't look past their self-titled.



Well said Deathcar... Except for the bit about the "cold" March nights. It's really humid at night in March down under. ;-)



'Montauk' is so good & catchy, yet the self-titled is so deep, I only have it as the 3rd best track on it. On any other album, it would be #1, so I guess it will have to just blame it on bad luck and show more devotion & desire next time!



Ta noodles.

Haha. I was wondering who was gonna chime in with that. Didn't expect it so quickly though.

Album Rating: 3.5

It's a great & fitting closer for a strong album, but I don't see it as the best song on it.

"guardrail is the best closer"



Agreed, although I must say that 'Killing Time' comes close.

very excited about this - good review but as I think these comments show, how much each album appeals is hugely variable. (Personally TWW is best - though Masterpiece is their best song). Wish these guys provided the template for more pop-punk bands - why not keep all the catchiness and angst but also chuck in some great musicianship and witty lyrics.

I guess there's nothing here that's going to gain them real success? Probably 5 albums in is a bit late for a breakout album.

Album Rating: 3.5

Very well said NovaSilver. Hugely variable & hugely personal.



And no, nothing on here will break them out. I think they may have lost that chance with the more experimental 'TWW'. If they'd gone in a more catchy way after the self-titled, they may have had a chance... Then again, if they had done that, would they still be as good a band now!?

Album Rating: 3.5

Agreed, but I'd never step in the way of such a great & hard-working band becoming a success. Plus, how do we know that they don't have dinner at McDonalds every night!?

They're not the only ones.



Oh well, let's just hope that a song on Bayside's next album is not called "Two All Beef Patties".

scoring a base hit only makes sense in the same way you "score" when you come into possession of anything. When it says "Scoring a base hit" on Wikipedia, it is talking about what the score keeper does on the stat sheet, not what the players in the game do.

"Bayside deliver another base hit, but there is still no walk-off home run" reads much better for anyone who really likes baseball (nobody but me)

obviously it isn't a big deal I'm js haha good review

Album Rating: 3.5

Speaking of lyrics, I just realized that the entire 2nd paragraph of this review was almost totally devoted towards them. Hmm, that didn't really come off as intentional & I'm not a big lyric quoter in my reviews usually.



Yeah bungy, I knew there was a technical issue, but hey, I could have used an Australian football analogy & then you would have been really f**ked. Just presume I'm a stat scorer, will ya. :-)
